A new homework app to review! So I mosied over to the app store and checked it out…it looks like it might be free as well- I don’t see an lite or pro division!

The basic interface is simple enough. It asks you to add a class:

And here is where I get stumped and have to go into my account to choose either a period based schedule or a block schedule:

Okay. That done, let’s go back to my English class and add my times:

Period based. Definitely period based. But will they allow for our crazy alternative week schedule?

Why yes!

Okay. I’ve added my class time. I have a lot of English classes:

Now for adding homework:

I like the scroll down list for type of assignment….

You have a lot of options in terms of when you want to receive your notification for your homework.

You can go to your homework icon and view all assignments due:

Okay. So let us go through our criteria:

Easy to use: Check

Clean, intuitive interface: Ads in the free version

easy to import schedules: There doesn’t seem to be any syncing with iCalbut it does sync with a program called Teachers.io. If a teacher uses this free program, they can add their classes and assignments and all the students need to do is find their teachers and classes and sync.

It would be great if it could talk to our intranet, but that might be too much to ask: No

Easy to input assignments: Yes

Different colours for different classes: NO

Alerts for assignments: Yes

If not free, then cheap: There is a free version with adsbut to get rid of the Ads you have to pay $1.99/year

Easily synced with your other devices: Yes

A space to add teacher contact info…(perhaps even sync with the contacts in iTunes?): You can add it in the description for the teacher of your class but there is no special place for contacts.
